    I'm looking to buy my first shotgun, for a bit of rough shooting. I have a budget of circa €450 and have been looking at a Suhl sxs which has no model number for €400, the gun seems to be in reasonable condition, and fits me well. Is this a reasonable price, or are there other brands I should I look at. Any advice appreciated.

    I think we need more information and some photos.
    It seems like a reasonable amount - BUT - there are many unknowns.

    Good luck with her lad. :cool:

    Now it's time to get the camera out and show her off. ;)
    Barrel flats and receiver table will have proof marks etc., ... good close-up photos will tell a story.
